Hong Kong Regiment 1891 - 1902

2 Attachment(s)

The Hong Kong Regiment (The Swagger Regiment) was recruited from Upper India in 1891. After serving in HK and China during the Boxer Rebellion the Regiment was disbanded in 1902. Attached is a picture of the two different cap badges that they used. Does anyone have an example of these badges in their collection ?

Very nice - I must admit I wasn't aware of the Indian connection until your post.
